Here's TAB for (yet) another fiddle tune - "Molly Bloom" by Alan Munde. This is a really pretty one IMHO, and kinda challenging to play. Note the use of high-fretted strings against open strings. (See measures 8 & 17, for example.) Let these notes ring into each other, giving a nice "floaty" effect. Play this one at about 180-200 beats/minute.
